A museum case shows you the artefact. THE DREAM WEAVER puts you inside the world it came from. 🏺 Blending archaeological evidence with ethnographic content into immersive XR storyliving experiences. Step into the burial rite 🌀 #ToolkitTuesday #EXCALIBUR #TheDreamWeaver #XR

Eleven toolkits. Four use cases. One consortium. A growing ecosystem of digital heritage assets that all need somewhere to live. 🏛️ THE HUB is the centralized platform where every EXCALIBUR solution, digital twin, and discovery comes together. #ToolkitTuesday #EXCALIBUR #TheHub #DigitalHeritage

One artifact. 12 datasets. 6 institutions. 3 schemas that don't talk to each other. The insights are there — they just can't find each other. 🗂️ 🔠 THE TRANSLATOR maps it all under a shared ontology connecting every EXCALIBUR data source! #HorizonEU #ToolkitTuesday #TheTranslator #KnowledgeGraph

What if you could see a threat to a heritage site before it happened? 🛰️ THE ORACLE fuses satellite+ UAV data into risk maps and time-series plots that turn conservation from reactive to proactive. Don't just map the past. Monitor its future. 🔮 #ToolkitTuesday #EXCALIBUR #TheOracle #EarthObservation

Bones hold an entire biography: age, height, physical history, cremation temperature. We just needed the right questions. 🦴 THE DETECTIVE asks them. 3D scanning+CT+SEM+ML, automating biological profiling of ancient remains at scale. #ToolkitTuesday #EXCALIBUR #TheDetective #Bioarchaeology

Every archaeology dig destroys the very context that makes it meaningful. Once a layer is lifted, it's gone. ⛏️ THE TIME MACHINE records every layer in 3D so you can follow exactly how artefact was found in the pit, long after the dig ends. #ToolkitTuesday #EXCALIBUR #TheTimeMachine #Archaeology

EXCALIBUR was on Sardinia’s Videolina TV! 📺 Dr. Ruggero Pintus (@crs4-it.bsky.social) discussed how our digital tools are transforming the Sant’Antioco pilot site. Watch: www.videolina.it/articolo/tg/... #Archaeology #Tech 🔗 excalibur-eccch.eu/excalibur-fe...
